I Am The Last Villainess He Has To Kill

Chapter 35 – Whatever Will Happen

Goosebumps appeared all over Bella's body.

As soon as the wanted list came down, she turned here.

‘Maybe, I'm ahead…?'

Her throat was choked

Like this, she never thought that she would suddenly break up. If only there had been a foreshadowing, if only she had been able to prepare her heart…

"I'll tell you two straight up."

Bella stared at Rohan blankly with still surprised eyes.

"His Majesty has ordered that all who know your past be rid of."

“….”

“Because they never know whether Your Highness’s past will be beneficial or poisonous in the future.”

"It's not poison."

After hearing Rohan's words, Kiehl responded coldly. It was the first time Rohan had seen him, though he knew him well, that it was going to come out like this.

It was like that ten years ago…

Even though they only met through eye contact, he wouldn't know that the Crown Prince lived on the streets. Children on the streets whose lives were killed without even a mouse or a bird knowing for no reason.

‘It will be difficult if someone keeps attacking the house because of me.'

Of course, he knew that Bella wasn't the one who was suffering. But, while he was away, he was afraid that her feelings for him would turn to hate.

"Bella."

“….”

"It's okay."

Bella was still looking at Kiehl with a blank expression on her face.

"I'll work hard. I'll work hard and pick you up without difficulty."

"Kiehl…"

He got up first and raised Bella up.

If he didn’t become a prince, Bella…

—"My life is at stake."

…She may die. So, in the end, if it was his destiny to go.

"So, please wait a bit."

Kiehl didn't think this moment was goodbye. It was just that they just couldn’t see each other for a while. He then said to Bella, hugging her slowly.

“I’ll make sure you'll live comfortably later.”

He focused on Bella's arms that he wouldn’t be able to hold for a while.

This breath, the fragrance, even the slightest tremor…

‘Wait… I can wait as long as needed.'

Bella patted him on the back and closed her eyes when he said that he would make her live comfortably.

"I’m proud of you."

She, too, wanted to see Kiehl growing by her side. She wanted to meet Lausanne and wanted to hear her ponder what to do with the person she likes.

Kiehl, who seemed to be the most difficult to accept, was rather calmly accepting reality.

‘You were also preparing for this moment.'

Bella, who knew the moment, was difficult to accept, and Kiehl, who did not know, seemed to be able to accept it.

There was the sound of a warm heart beating.

Kiehl asked softly in a voice only she could hear.

"You can't turn into a cat, can you?"

Hearing those words, Bella could barely hold back her tears and smile.

‘It's a foul to be this cute.'

Can we meet again?

‘I would go back…to the demon realm.'

The fact that she had been avoiding was approaching her nose and slapped her on the cheek.

Bella slowly looked at Kiehl's face.

The last time she would see this face…

The sun had already set, and the red sun was shining through the window, decorating the end. Kiehl's blonde hair looked more distinct and clear with the sunset. His amber eyes also resembled autumn, although it was now spring.

From sunset until morning, Bella and Kiehl stayed together in the room next to the examination room.

"By the way, I haven't been to the sea. We tried to go without Pur."

"Can Pur swim?"

"Well. She used to catch salmon in the river, can't she?"

Investigator Rohan looked at them without saying a word as if he was being considerate and then left the room. Before going to sleep, reminiscing on memories together…

Bella wanted to stop time like this, though she knew it was time for her to accept it as it was like when she suddenly died in her previous life.

"Kiehl. You know."

If she just possessed an ordinary person, she could give him the original story.

"Your life will have a happy ending. Even if it's a little difficult, you'll eventually become an emperor."

"Bella…"

After Kiehl entered the Imperial Palace, he could not come out until he came out to retrieve the relics. And, by the time this novel began, she would be in the demon realm.

So, she had to say what she wanted to say.

"I was so happy to have you."

"Why do you say it like the last time?"

"You never know. You never know when we will meet again." Bella said, leaning her own head to the side of Kiehl's head.

"It's better to say everything now than to regret not saying it then."

At that, he carefully raised Bella's hand.

"Bella, do you want to tie the red thread…?"

Hearing his words, she smiled and shook Kiehl's hand away.

"Haha. Kiehl, that's when you find someone you really love, then you bond with that person."

Seeing the disappointment in his eyes, Bella hurriedly apologized.

"Well, of course, I like and love our Kiehl so much. But that's a different kind of love."

“….”

"That’s more, like an adult… something like that…"

The more she said, the more she had to explain, Bella felt like she was digging her own grave.

"I'm sorry. People in Animal Kingdom don't love each other, so I don't know."

Bella felt lonely even as she spoke to herself. When Kiehl got ready, he took the red thread from his pocket and quietly tied it to Bella’s little finger.

“…Hey, Kiehl.”

He tied it to his own finger and grabbed Bella's hand.

“When we meet again, we will meet with a smile.”

"…Okay."

The last night passed like that.

‘I stayed up all night like this when I first saw you.'

At that time, the dawn was bright and it was full of hope.

‘Perhaps… If I could go to the demon realm and come back to the human realm.'

Bella wanted to gamble on her fate, which she might not know.

‘Because I don't want much.'

She wanted to hold his hand one more time and watch him happy to the end. Until the day dawned and Kiehl left for the Imperial Palace, she didn't take her eyes off him.

As when they first met, he was crumbled in the sun and was immersed in her eyes.

"Goodbye, my Kiehl."

Kiehl got farther away, and Rohan, who was still there, coughed a few times.

"Did you say goodbye?"

"Aren't you going there?"

"I still have work to do."

Then, Rohan added one more word.

"Are you sad?"

Suddenly, Bella felt ominous.

‘Is it because of the mood?'

Long before she possessed the novel, it was the first words the Grim Reaper spoke to

her when she died.

—"Are you sad?"

Then she said,

—"There's nothing to be sad about. It's just the result of my choices."

Bella remained silent at Rohan's words. Now, it was a matter of how to tell the family of the mansion that Kiehl had left.

At that moment, Rohan handed a heavy pouch from his arms to her.

"…What is it?"

"Thank you for taking care of His Highness."

There were quite a few gold coins in the pocket.

"If possible, it would be good if you could move your current residence."

"…What?"

"In my old hunch, your presence seems to be poison to His Highness."

"You don't feel like you shouldn't talk carelessly with your mouth, don't you?"

She was silent again.

"I'm not threatening Miss' life. If that was the case, I would have dealt with you right away without saying anything like this.”

Who is threatening whose life?

Rohan handed Bella a vial from his arms and opened his mouth again, "It's a memory-thinning drug. It can blur very old memories."

“….”

"If you eat this, I will assume that you will not interfere in his life in the future."

Bella did not understand this situation.

Of course, she didn't think she would ever be able to meet him again either.

It didn't feel real, although she thought it was the last time and she said goodbye, too. Bella thought, though, that before she returned to the underworld, she would know how well Kiehl was doing in the Imperial Palace.

"It's going to happen, anyway. As the Miss said, it would be better if you do it quickly."

The words that Bella said to Calix became a boomerang and returned to her.

"If it's really meant to be, I'm sure you’ll meet someday."

Bella answered quietly with reaching out her middle finger.

***

Returning to the mansion, Bella was in the library, where she was browsing books about wizards.

‘If only I could somehow come out to the human world.'

She would be able to watch over Kiehl like a guardian deity until he dies of old age.

Rohan's words only sounded arrogant.

‘You're sitting there talking about being meant to be.'

Even though she searched for it for several days, there was no example of a wizard that had summoned a demon king.

‘Sigh… Why is no one summoning the Demon King? It's very convenient and nice.'

Then, she felt a chilly presence behind her own and turned around. After a few seconds of bewilderment that the person wearing the mask didn't turn around, they swung their sharp weapon at her.

Bella made a ‘bang’ to the stomach, and Jenkins opened the door to the study.

"Miss…!"

Bella asked, kicking the assassin's body with her feet.

"What's going on?"

"I do not know."

She then recalled the words that Rohan had said.

—"You'd better move quickly."

She hurriedly took out the summoning circle to the Demon Realm.

"Are you going back to the Demon Realm?"

"No. Take the expensive things to a safe place first."

She couldn’t just throw away the furniture she's been collecting so hard. The smell of blood wafted as Bella stepped out of the study.

“Guys, what is this…”

"Should we keep the one who attacked us alive? This is the self-defense that the princess spoke of!"

The most excited Zanbar was worried Bella's nagging might start so he made an excuse first.

"No, keep one alive. Then I'll ask."

No matter how many people they sent, Bella wandered through the jumbled corpses, looking for the sound of a breathing heart.

"Hey, where are you guys sent from?"

The dying man chuckled and answered.

"Wi… witch…"

"Iwer, try your hallucinations."

Then, Iwer, who had been hiding behind Pur, appeared and walked proudly, raising her nose.

"Ahem. A dream demon is what you need at times like this. Do you understand? Sir Zanbar?"

Like he was criticized for saying she wasn't helpful in battle?

As Iwer kissed the dying man's mouth, the man rolled his eyes once and looked only at Iwer.

"Where are they from?"

"The…imperial palace."

"Oh my, how does the Empire know? Did the people talk when the Miss froze the parlor before?”

Bella bit her lip and asked again.

"Tell me all the names and affiliations."

"Why are you asking such a thing…"

Perhaps, among the people involved in this work, she wondered if there were any important characters in the novel.

"…Laura, Peter, Hans…"

And, out of the fifteen people the assassin spewed out, three were people in the novel.

Those who would all become Kiehl's limbs.

They were people who did not interfere with the relationship at all, but they were people who created minor conflicts…

Bella took the last survivor's breath and let out a sigh.

‘I moved it forward by half a year…’

Even the characters were accidentally killed.
